Google sent Android version 12.1 with the March security upgrade to Pixel smartphones this week through Feature Drop. The beta programme for Android 12L had come to an end, but Google had not. In a surprise move, Google started putting out a fresh beta release for Pixel smartphones today.
For those who are curious in Android 12’s “QPR” (Quarterly Platform Release) Betas, Google has now created a new website. Android 12 QPR3 Beta 1 allows participants to test June’s feature drops before the most recent Feature Drop for March is released.
Quantum physics render engine 3 (QPR3) Beta 1 is now available for the following devices: Pixel 4, 4, XL, 4, Pixel 4a 5, A5, A6, and Pro 6. Android beta testers should expect an OTA upgrade to appear on compatible Pixels. Even though Google hasn’t formally disclosed this change to its Beta programme, there aren’t many information available at this time.
If you haven’t already, you may now try out the 10 Feature Drops that Google has just announced. New features are expected to be released on the Beta channel after they’ve been made public in the current Feature Drop set. We anticipate that the September 2022 Drop will be ready for testing shortly after the June 2022 Feature Drop, kicking off a new testing cycle. Google has not officially announced a Beta release timeline for the new QPR versions, so this is just a guess. Source
